Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Jewel Reed Beetle sighting in Hamburg on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 245th most-seen of the 423 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Jewel Reed Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Hamburg (12 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
